1 John 3
1 Look at the amazing kind of love the Father has for us! This is why we can be called God's children—for that's who we are! The reason why the people of this world don't recognize us as God's children is because they don't recognize him.
Ihengi ingi ulowa kii ukinkiiye uTata, kina kuitangwa ana ang'wa Itunda, ni iti uu nikili, Ku nsoko iyi u unkumbigulu shanga ukulingile ku nsoko shanga ai umulingile nuanso.
2 My friends, we are already God's children; however what we shall become hasn't been revealed just yet. But we do know that when he appears, we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he really is.
Alowa usese itungili ingi ki ana ang'wa Itunda, hangi ikili kukaminkiiligwa kinya uli kikatulika. Kulingile kina uKristo nuikigeeleka, kikimpyana nu ng'wenso, kuiti kikamihenga anga nuili.
3 All those who have this hope in them make sure they are pure, just as he is pure.
Ni kila ung'wi niiza ukete u ugimya uwu kutula matungo napembilye nai utugigwe kitolakwe, wielyaa mukola anga ung'wenso nuili ng'welu.
4 All those who sin are lawless, because sin is lawlessness.
Kila muntu nulongolekile kituma i milandu wibunanga malagiilyo, Kunsoko i milandu ingi kubunanga malagiilyo.
5 But of course you know that Jesus came to take away sins, and that there is no sin in him.
Mulingile uKristo ai wigeeigwe iti kumiheja i milandu lukulu, Nu mukati akwe kutili imilandu.
6 All those who live in him don't go on sinning; all those who keep on sinning haven't seen him and haven't known him.
Kutili ga nu ug'wi nuikie mukati akwe nu kulongoleka kituma i milandu. Kutili umuntu ga nu ngwi nuikie mu milandu aze watulaa wamihenga ang'wi kumulinga ung'wenso.
7 Dear friends, don't let anyone fool you: those who do what is right are right, in the same way as Jesus is right.
Ang'yinya alowa, leki kugombi kulimiligwa nu muntu wihi. Nuitumaa i tai ane ingi munya tai ane, anga iti uKristo nu ng'wenso nuili munya taiane.
8 Those who sin are of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. That's the reason why the Son of God came—to destroy what the devil has done.
Nuitumaa i milandu ingi wa mulugu, ku nsoko u mulugu ingi mituma milandu puma ung'wandyo. Kunsoko ili u Ng'wana nu ang'wa Itunda ai wigeeigwe iti wahume kubipya i milimo a mulugu.
9 All those who are born of God don't keep on sinning, for God's nature lives in them. They can't keep on sinning because they are born of God.
Wihi nai utugilwe nu Itunda shanga witumaa i milandu, kunsoko i mbeu niang'wa Itunda ipezaa mukati akwe. Shanga uhumile kulongoleka kituma i milandu ku nsoko utugilwe nu Itunda.
10 This is how God's children and the devil's children can be distinguished: all those who don't do what's right don't belong to God, nor do those who don't love their fellow Christians.
Mu ili ana ang'wa Itunda ni ana a mulugu alingikile. Wihi ni shanga witumaa ni kili ka tai ane. shanga wang'wa Itunda, ang'wi nuanso niiza shanga uhumile kumulowa u muluna nuakwe.
11 The message you've heard from the beginning is simply this: we should love one another.
Ku iti ulu lulo lukani nai muligule kupuma ung'wandyo, kina kutakiwe kilowa sese ku sese,
12 We cannot be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one, and murdered his brother. Why did he murder him? Because Cain did what was evil, while his brother did what was right.
shanga anga uKaini naiza watuile mubii nu kumubulaga u muluna nuakwe. Hangi ku niki ai umubulagile? kunsoko intendo niakwe ai yatulaa mbibi, hangi izo nai ya muluna nuakwe ai yatulaa nia tai ane
13 So don't be surprised, my friends, if this world hates you!
Aluna ane, leki ku kuilwi, angaitule u unkumbigulu ukumubipilwa.
14 The reason we know that we have changed from death to life is because we love our Christian brothers and sisters. Anyone who doesn't love remains dead.
Kulingile kakondilyee puma mu nsha nu kingila mu upanga, ku nsoko kualoilwe i aluna. Wihi niiza mugila u ulowa wikie mu nsha.
15 All those who hate their Christian brothers and sisters are murderers, and you know that no murderers have eternal life within them! (aiōnios g166)
Muntu wihi niiza umubipiwe u muluna nuakwe ingi mubulagi. Hangi mulingile kina u upanga nua kali na kali shanga wikie mukati a mubulagi. (aiōnios g166)
16 This is how we know what love is: Jesus laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for our Christian brothers and sisters.
Ku ili kuulingile u ulowa, kunsoko uKristo ai u upumulye u upanga nuakwe kunsoko itu. Nu sese ikutakile kulupumya u likalo nu litu ku nsoko a aluna.
17 If one of you is living well in this world and you see your Christian brother or sister in need, but you don't show compassion—how can God's love be living in you?
Kuiti wihi nukete i intu, hangi ukumihenga u muluna nuakwe. muula, kuiti wi migilya i nkolo akwe ni akinya uwai kunsoko akwe; Itii, u ulowa nuang'wa Itunda wikiii uli mukati akwe?
18 Dear friends, let's not just say we love with words, but show our love in what we do and how we demonstrate the truth.
Ana ane alowa, kuleke kulowa ku milomo ang'wi ku nkani ntili ila mu ntendo ni tai.
19 This is how we will know that we belong to the truth, and how we will set our minds at rest before God
Mu ili kulingile kina usese kukoli mu tai, ni inkolo niitu ikaminkiiligwa mu ng'wenso.
20 whenever we think we're in the wrong. God is greater than how we think, and he knows everything.
Anga itule i nkolo ni itu ikuulamula, Itunda ingi mukulu kukila i nkolo ni itu, nu ng'wenso wilingaa i makani ihi.
21 Dear friends, if we're reassured we're not in the wrong, we can have confidence before God.
Alowa, anga i nkolo yitu shanga ikuulamula, ku kukete u ugimya kung'wa Itunda.
22 We'll receive from him whatever we ask him for, because we follow his commands and do what pleases him.
Hangi kihi ni kuulompa ku usingiilya kupuma kitalakwe, ku nsoko kumaambiie i malagiilyo akwe nu kituma i makani nazipie ntongeela akwe.
23 This is what he commands: we should trust in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, just as he commanded us to do.
Hangi ili lilo iagiilyo nilakwe - nia kina ikutakile ku huiila mu lina nila Ng'wana nuakwe uYesu Kristo nu kilowa sese ku sese - anga nai ukinkiiye ilagiilyo nilakwe.
24 Those who keep his commands continue to live in him, and he lives in them. We know that he lives in us by the Spirit he has given us.
Nuikulyaa i malagiilyo akwe wikiie mukati akwe, nu Itunda wikiie mukati akwe. Ni kunsoko iyi kulingile kina wikiie mukati akwe, Ku Ng'wau Ng'welu uyo nai ukinkiiye.
